Holiday Inn Express & Suites Hawthorne – Elmsford North is a practical base for exploring Sleepy Hollow Country, set just off the Saw Mill River Parkway in Hawthorne. It’s a short drive from the Tarrytown Music Hall, Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, Kykuit, and Phillipsburg Manor, and about 6 to 7 miles from Lyndhurst and Washington Irving’s Sunnyside.
Rooms include standard rooms plus one- and two-bedroom suites, which suit families and small groups. The complimentary Express Start breakfast buffet runs from 7 to 10 AM, with hot items like scrambled eggs, sausage or bacon, pancakes, and the chain’s signature cinnamon rolls. Other perks include a heated indoor pool (open daily, 10 AM to 8 PM), a 24-hour fitness center, free Wi-Fi, free on-site parking, and a guest laundry room.
Dogs are welcome (up to 75 pounds, $40 per night, two per room). There’s no on-site restaurant or guest shuttle, so plan on driving or taking a rideshare to dinner in Tarrytown.
